Drag Car... Start To Finish!

Well i couldnt hold back anymore, its time the members of EVO M got a chance to see an amazing car build. I made this post so i could put up progess pictures as the car is being built up until its debut next month. Not many people get a chance to see what goes into a serious drag car so this would be a great look into what the big guys go through to break some records.

NOW.. on to the pictures

BONE STOCK gg evo 9 just waiting to be modified

Nice interior... too bad everything is coming out for cage fabrication and structural support!

No more roof!






Right about now some of you are probably about to pass out from what we did to that beautiful evo 9... but did you really think we would leave the car like that? Off to PAINT!!!!!



Carbon roof and trunk....


vr4 rear diff

apparently it was advertising a shop so hopefully this thread doesnt close because im sure a lot of people want to see the hard work that goes into building an all out drag car from a bone stock evo.

as far as the turbo kit goes, shearer built a custom manifold for this car and its running a 4202 for now.....

as far as the head goes, we are working on a unique intake manifold cnc'd ported cylinder head that is specifically designed to work with each other.... so far the cfm #'s look VERY PROMISING... we will release further specs once the testing is finalized.
